next console? why even bother.

edeprez1216d ago

Because of the ancient hardware. More opportunities to get 3rd party games, like we saw in the first few years with the switch. Their sales are slowly starting to decline, so a new console would give incentive to consumers to replace their old tattered tablets. And just to top it off, we would get better performance and better looking games.

Why use something old and missing features. I can understand borrowing some online features from the Switch. But the lack of a party chat system, message a friend system and having to add one long dumbass code to add a friend. Those lack of features and dumbass code are what is preventing me from putting my Switch online.

I think it just means they aren't changing the service as a whole. Doesn't mean new features won't be added or changed. It's like Sony using PSN or MS using Xbox Live on their next systems.

I kinda expect that to be the case - Nintendo doesn’t invest much in online.

I don’t think we’ll see a new console for a while though, not while the Switch is still selling like hot cakes.

Can't be that's not the Nintendo way. Their way is making you buy the same old retro games for years.🤣
Their not making a fool out of me. I'll be the one with the last laugh because I have all the ROM's for every Nintendo console for years.

If I can play all the games I bought on the Switch on the successor, that's a win for me, I don't like dumping my games library every time a new system is released.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle54d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
